crypto: algapi - make crypto_xor() and crypto_inc() alignment agnostic

2017-02-11T09:52:28Z

Instead of unconditionally forcing 4 byte alignment for all generic chaining modes that rely on crypto_xor() or crypto_inc() (which may result in unnecessary copying of data when the underlying hardware can perform unaligned accesses efficiently), make those functions deal with unaligned input explicitly, but only if the Kconfig symbol HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set. This will allow us to drop the alignmasks from the CBC, CMAC, CTR, CTS, PCBC and SEQIV drivers. For crypto_inc(), this simply involves making the 4-byte stride conditional on HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS being set, given that it typically operates on 16 byte buffers. For crypto_xor(), an algorithm is implemented that simply runs through the input using the largest strides possible if unaligned accesses are allowed. If they are not, an optimal sequence of memory accesses is emitted that takes the relative alignment of the input buffers into account, e.g., if the relative misalignment of dst and src is 4 bytes, the entire xor operation will be completed using 4 byte loads and stores (modulo unaligned bits at the start and end). Note that all expressions involving misalign are simply eliminated by the compiler when HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is defined. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Clear CRYPTO_ALG_DEAD bit before registering an alg

2017-01-23T14:41:32Z

Make sure CRYPTO_ALG_DEAD bit is cleared before proceeding with the algorithm registration. This fixes qat-dh registration when driver is restarted Cc: Signed-off-by: Salvatore Benedetto Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Add crypto_inst_setname

2016-07-01T15:45:11Z

This patch adds the helper crypto_inst_setname because the current helper crypto_alloc_instance2 is no longer useful given that we now look up the algorithm after we allocate the instance object. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Add crypto_type_has_alg helper

2016-01-25T14:42:12Z

This patch adds the helper crypto_type_has_alg which is meant to replace crypto_has_alg for new-style crypto types. Rather than hard-coding type/mask information they're now retrieved from the crypto_type object. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - use list_first_entry_or_null and list_next_entry

2015-11-23T12:55:50Z

Simplify crypto_more_spawns() with list_first_entry_or_null() and list_next_entry(). Signed-off-by: Geliang Tang Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Only abort operations on fatal signal

2015-10-20T13:59:25Z

Currently a number of Crypto API operations may fail when a signal occurs. This causes nasty problems as the caller of those operations are often not in a good position to restart the operation. In fact there is currently no need for those operations to be interrupted by user signals at all. All we need is for them to be killable. This patch replaces the relevant calls of signal_pending with fatal_signal_pending, and wait_for_completion_interruptible with wait_for_completion_killable, respectively.

crypto: api - Add instance free function to crypto_type

2015-07-14T06:56:45Z

Currently the task of freeing an instance is given to the crypto template. However, it has no type information on the instance so we have to resort to checking type information at runtime. This patch introduces a free function to crypto_type that will be used to free an instance. This can then be used to free an instance in a type-safe manner. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Remove unused __crypto_dequeue_request

2015-07-14T06:56:44Z

The function __crypto_dequeue_request is completely unused. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Include alignment in crypto_alg_extsize

2015-06-03T02:48:34Z

This patch ensures that the tfm context always has enough extra memory to ensure that it is aligned according to cra_alignment. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

crypto: api - Add crypto_grab_spawn primitive

2015-05-13T02:31:25Z

This patch adds a new primitive crypto_grab_spawn which is meant to replace crypto_init_spawn and crypto_init_spawn2. Under the new scheme the user no longer has to worry about reference counting the alg object before it is subsumed by the spawn. It is pretty much an exact copy of crypto_grab_aead. Prior to calling this function spawn->frontend and spawn->inst must have been set. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
